Description

As previously discussed in #174, this is due to https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-libc/issues/617, which was fixed in WASI-SDK 28. However, WASI-SDK 28 also broke the `wasm32-wasip2` target in various ways, e.g. https://github.com/WebAssembly/wasi-libc/issues/640, so we'll need to wait for WASI-SDK 29 at least before we can pull that fix in (or backport the fix if we get desperate).

Research direction

No repository file or test is named. Start with issue #174 and the linked wasi-libc issues 617 and 640, then check WASI-SDK 29 support for the wasm32-wasip2 target. Done means sys.exit no longer hangs while the target remains functional.
